ANTHROPOMORPHISM5
The Heineken example we cited is just one example of using anthropomorphism to sell a product. The thinking here is simple: The more human a product is, the more connected we feel to it. We develop the tendency to anthropomorphize early on when we get attached to things like blankets, binkies and cartoon characters. “We tend to add thoughts and emotions to objects in a similar way to how we would experience things ourselves,” explains Andrews. This in turn makes us empathize with things like beer bottles or cleaning products. “The more we like an advertised product and have ‘feelings’ for it, the more likely we are to bond with it, and thus buy the advertised product.” TRUSTWORTHINESS Every face you see in an ad is carefully selected based on lots of criteria. One of those things? How trustworthy that person looks. We rely on visual cues to unconsciously figure out how we feel about something, and it turns out some people just look more trustworthy than others. Beyond obvious signifiers like a creepy mustache, things like facial width-to-height ratio (the distance between the two extremes of the cheekbones and the distance from the upper lip to the eyebrows) can clue us in to how trustworthy a person is. People with higher faces are perceived as more trustworthy than those with wide faces, as are brown eyes versus blue. SCARCITY If you’ve ever bought airline tickets on Kayak, you’ve undoubtedly seen the little alert telling you “Only 1 ticket left at this price!” Nothing kicks you into buying mode like the fear of paying more for the same product or missing out on it altogether. [10]Turns out, FOMO extends to buying stuff, too. Andrews says this is partially because it's been ingrained in our minds that the expensive things tend to be scarce 104 (gold, diamonds). Scarcity also suggests that other people like the product (hello, social proof). Andrews writes that the last reason scarcity technique works so well is that it reminds us that our freedom of choice will soon be gone.Q2 SOCIAL PROOF Among the most effective tactics advertisers can use is tapping into our social insecurities. It makes sense; we go to doctors, hairstylists and restaurants based on our friends’ recommendations, and we’re just as likely to buy something because it’s been given the stamp of approval by someone we know and admire. “The more people who approve of something, the more likely we are to like it, too” says Andrews. Just look at Facebook and its snowball “liking” effect. Even saying something as simple as “Nine out of 10 people choose Tide” or “The majority of people prefer Wonder Bread” works exceptionally to influence human behavior, Andrews adds. So much for individuality. Download 1.13 Mb. Do'stlaringiz bilan baham: |
